Your Dreams Of Better Things Poem by Francis Duggan

Your dreams of better things for you and your family for you not coming true
Though you feel your turn of luck in life is overdue
Suppose to be wealthy and famous is not your life's destiny
As you do hear some say whatever will be will be
Though some argue that destiny for human beings is only hearsay
That in our journey through life we do choose our own way
Whilst others believe that everything does come to those who do wait
To those who with hope are willing to keep the faith
For many the journey through life is quite tough
And millions are in poverty and homeless and are sleeping rough
You are one of many struggling to make ends meet
On the poor side of town on a very poor street
But you never complain that life is unfair
And you will never surrender to despair.
